ROUTINE WORK AT THE CAMP Something About the Army Life of the Soldiers from Georgia. DOWN 10 REAL BUSINESS. They Are Doing Their Marching Ex ercise Will Get Down to the Gun Drill Soon. Camp Northen, Ga., May 17.—Yesterday the government eommenc.-.l giving the Ml' 11 le I e the lift ile t .111 men t of <quip mints, and all day have been busy with the work. The “upidi. which were given the men came m most opportunely, as a large num ber us them were without a change of clothing and were m arly barefooted. One suit of underclothing ami a pair of shot.-, w. re furm.-hed tile men, and an order i.va Issmd Inal all . xlra clothlug be washed iby the men at once, and every available Ir. e and bush m id some article of 'clothing put out in lhe sun Io dry. '1 lie < lothing issued to tile men are regu lation army auppiies, and though a littl. rough, will give Valuable service. There are no half numb, it in ■shoes, ami sonic of the men who ordered their shoes a half number 100 large are hardly able to carry them, for tile shoe: are lull size and are nbout half a size largei than the regular shots, so that there is r. ally necessity for asking for a larger size than is gen erally worn. It is. hardly probable .Chat the men will be supplied wtlii uniform and guns litre, li is reported that they will be carried to Chickamauga and bt fitted up. Some of 11m companies have their guns here, ami the men are being drilled tn the manutl, but those who havi no guns are learning the marching orders Ju comparison with this gattierlng or troops i| tie state encampment was child’.- play, ami everything is business from cook to colonel. For the past few days the captains of the Jiff' rent compaui. s have assembled theli command in th. respective mess halls and read them the ai tides of war and in struct. <1 tin m in t'he art of handling and carrying their guns. It is settled Ibeyoud a doubt m»w that the Springfield rilles will be u-ed. as this was the gun winch the men were instructed to take to pieces and to care tor. .it is not known here whether or not the guns will be calhd in from the different armories of the slate, .liu’t it is thought tiiai ti.e guns which were discard ed ‘by the regular army will -be furnislud the volunteers. It is probable, however, that what knapsacks, hav.t.acks ami can teens which are now in possession of the Geoigia troops, will be us. d and the de ficiency made up from the national arse nal. All <’l the good things which the people of I Macon left here Sunday have about dis appeared. and the boys have dropped back to th" bread, loans and t.acon, witli black coffee to drink at 5:10 in the morning ami for dinner ami supper. The hardest drill of the day is the forty live minute drill before breakfast, and when tile men come in they are glad to see even the bacon ami black coffee. There has been icoiisider.-.-ble impi ov.-ment in the 'bread Inrnishcil the troops, and the boys have made up their minds not to complain any more elf the food, or of any of the hardships imposed upon them, and the quarters of the IMaeon companies ring again with the merry laughter and Jolly songs. Chough it is evident that while they laugh many are thinking of fond parents ami sweethearts at home, and while every man in the regiment is anxious to get to tin front as early i.i possible, there, is a sentinu nt in every man's breast which he catefully guilds against the eyes of his companions. It is already a noticeable fad that the younger men and boys in the different comp. nite.-, are bi aring up more uncom- ( B -Oiv A OjjpQ Poor Way VHW to T reat Eczema Is to rely upon local applications, such as soaps, lotions, salves, etc., which can not possibly go below the surface. This treat ment is very much like attempting to boil water by applying the heat to the top of the vessel containing it. Everybody knows what a crude and unsatisfactory process it would be, and nc one would think of employing such a method. Yet it is a very common thing for those afflicted with Eczema, tp expect to be cured by treatment which does not touch the disease. Eczema is not a skin disease, as so many people think, although it pro duces fiery and burning itching that becomes almost unbearable. Zinc ointments, and other applications containing minerals, should be avoided, as they are very injurious to the skin. The disease itself, the real cause of the trouble, is in the blood, and only a real blood remedy, like Swift’s Specific, which goes down to the very foundation and forces out all impurity, can ever have any permanent effect upon it. I had Eczema on my foot for twenty frifi) years, and notwithstanding constant treat- as ment it continued to spread and grow worse. I used salves and lotions innumerable, iji- and also used several blood remedies, but V / none had any effect. The disease finally ex- - J tended from my toes to my knee, and the pain and itching were almost unlH\irable. On V account of my age (which is 70) the physicians V said a cure was impossible. One dozen bot- Jx' JN ties of S. S. S. cured me completely, and now only the sears remain to show the awful struggle I have endured. Mrs. Sarah Pike, 477 Broadway, South Boston, Mass. I have been a sufferer for eight years with that horrible disease. Eczema, and no per- ’wl son can describe the burning and itching I Fk M had to endure. 1 was treated by the best Vj of physicians with no success, and tried all | the patent medicines recommended for Ec- JF zema without any g<xxi results. 1 went to /"J jJ/X several celebrated nuMlicnl resorts, but the disease soon returned. 1 then tried S. S. S. W-yy S \ and after a short while the burning and itch ing subsided and I continued to improve x *’' '* steadily until I was well—entirely cured. Wm. Armstrong, De Fere, Wis. Those who are content with only temporary relief from Ecze ma can continue the use of local applications, but all who would have every trace of the irritating, burning disease thor oughly eliminated and the system rid of it forever, will find the only cure in Swift ’s Specific (S. S. S.). Being a real blood remedy, it never fails to cure the most obstinate, deep-seated cases, which are lieyond the reach of other remedies. S. S S. is the best blood remedy, because it is Pl RELY VEGETABLE and is the only one guaranteed to contain no mercury, potash or any other mineral.

They are taking life as it comes, with never a thought of the morrow. When the troys come in from drill now they have appetites that do not stand back on anything. , Tin. scene on the parad? ground when : all of the companies are out for drill is a most busy one. The companies are divi ded into squads, and the large drill grounds full of marching men reminds the I veterans of the days when they marched to the step of inspiring music and wen’ out. ' to meet the enemy. < VMF GOSSSP. Camp Northern, Griffin, Ga.. May 17— Tin- Macon companies are still the lions In camp life, and there is not a jollier set anywh.re They set the pace of every thing. and are voted the best military or ganizations in camp. I am told that one of the post command ent said that the selection of Georgia's volunteer:; by the governor was most judi cious, though he has been accused of in troducing politics into the appointments, and he still better displayed his good judg ment when so many valuable officers were selected from 'Macon. Major Owen T. Kenan is regarded as one of the most thorough military men in the -fate, and his ability and good judgment i: recognized by all the officials. The men in Major Kenan’s battalion are no less pi mid of him than he is of them. Three of the Macon companies are in M ajor K' nan’s battalion, the 'Hussars, the Floyd Rifles and the Guards, and there is the most perfect hamony in this command. The Perry Hilles, which is considered one of the finest drilled companies in the state, makes up the four companies in the bat talion. The Hussar have long been looked upon a- the most thorough military company in the state, and though there are many raw i .ciuitsin the company. Captain Bell now has one of the best all round companies in all of Georgia’s volunteers. Captain Bell’s name has been synonymous with p. ifect military discipline and his capa bilities are unquestioned. , The old Floyd 'Rifles bear the reputation won during the civil war with cpdit now, and under Captain Blanton Winship are fast becoming one of the most efficient companies in camp. Out of a large number of raw recruits Captain Winship has se lected a company that Is second to none. The Guards are fast winning an en viable reputation under their new name, and the Macon Guards promises to be a name of as much note as was ever the Ma con Light Infantry. The Volunteer, arc not in the same bat talion wi'h the other Macon companies, md this is the only regret that the hoys have, that they could not all be together, everybody knows of the Volunteers, a happy lot of the best fellows in the coun ttv. They are very much like a large family, and boast the handsomest set of officers in the regiment. The Volunteers are now settling down to business, and will prove as good fighters as they are enter tainers, which is the host Many interesting incidents take place each day, and the soldiers’ life is not so burdensome as some at first imagined it was going to bo. The coming of the home folks put new life and inspiration into the boys, and now that they have seen how those they have left .behind stand beside them, tiny are determined to do or die. Bob Hodges, of the Volunteers, says lie is in receipt of a delicately perfumed bar "f soap of which he is very’ proud, but wants to know the name of the sender, lie says he thinks he knows why’ it was ' nt, for while the visitors were here Sun day, lie wanted to impress them with the needs of t>ie soldiers and placed a large • ■ake of turpentine soap on the stand in front of his tent. Everybody is congratulating little Fritz Jones on his appointment to the position of sergeant major. Fritz was one of the 'ftieient sargeants in the Hussars and was appointed to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. Pope Hili, of iMacon. Lieutenant Walter Corbett, of the Floyd 'ifles, is settling down to work and is one of the most enthusiastic . and energetic officers in the regiment, Sargeants Herbert 'Smart and Lloyd Massenburg have turned out two beautiful crops of beard. They say' they are going to cut them off when they get long and make love knots for the girls at home. Though army’ regulations do not require it, all of the boys are being nicknamed. High John McDaniel, who is six feet five, is now' known as “Shorty,” Corporal Geise Geeslin as “Drake,” Harry' Garden as Maud,” Tom Ellis as “il Willie,” Warren Wiley as “Parson,” Redheaded Jess Bolles as “Blondy.” Herbert Smart as “Ichabod Crane,” and a hundred others. In every' instance the men are given names that are not at all appropriate. Goode M. Guerry. Our Soldiers •at Griffin. At the soldiers’ rendezvous, Camp Nor then, two miles west of the beautiful and picturesque little town of Griffin, Ga.. arc stationed seme among the bravest boys this or any ot’iier state ever had the -honor of inarching to the trout in defense of this ■ country. There they are, brave, hottest and true, awaiting with breathless anxiety ‘the call demanding their immediate pres eme on Cuban soil, there to revenge the death of the brave and gallant boys who lost their lives on rhe long to be remem bered Maine. How the heart of the young soldier throbs, and the biood he inherited boils as it finds its way through the system, when the sad fate of this ship, whose name will never grow rusty with age, is men tioned. We give you the blessed assur ance that every man, woman and cnild left behind, admires the bravery of the act in offering your services in this important, yet dangerous voyage. 'At night when the ■beautiful moonlit heavens are hid from the eyes of the soldier boy by’ the canvas overhead, bear in mind that at your homes are true friends wis’hing for you a safe return, and Christian soldiers praying for your safety, laden with honor and victo ry over the Spaniards. Every true son who who has enlisted, after the toils of camp lite have been earnestly and intelligently' pursued, in our mind, with every other worldly care becomes drowned in the sea of forgetfulness, what delightful simplici ty characterizes one’s mind to divert back to home, sweet home, although humble, there is no place l.ke home, especially on the eve of battle. Before closing the eyes tiie great comforter sleep will not relieve your droopy lids, until, mother, sweet mother, enters the mind of the soldier brave. There before you is portrayed as it by magic, her 'form, her tear-stained iaee. as it looked, when she said good-bye, per haps farewell. Loft, yes, fill '.behind with a broken heart, whose prayers for her no ble 'boy have already become to numerous to enumerate. These thoughts cause a tear to be shed from the bravest eyes and •the stoniest heart becomes touched. Oh, ■the name of mother, honor it, and on t'he fieldis or 'battle, remember her prayers are for you, that you may prove true soldiers, an honor 'to your country and your God! The souvenir’s that you carry with you, from dear ones at home, will add greatly toward encouraging you when the roar ot the cannon is heard the 'breath of the bul let is felt, and t'he noonday' soon is dint nif-d by the smoke at the musketry’, then, and not until 'then will the words and the promises return,'when those little souvenirs were given you by a dear loved one far away. Again, think of the brave father at home, who witli unexcelled duty as a soldier braved the storms oi a cruel war for four years, and bears today, not the badge of cowardice; no, no, never. God forbid! but instead, he beats the scars of honor and bravery, which words can never express and the pen of a reiady writer dare not touch. Think again, 'Southern braves, of the noble father and brother whose life blood was so freely shed for our country — died on the bloody fields of Manassas, and elsewhere, pierced with the enemy’s 'bullet, dying, yes, dying, with no friendly hand to render aid —no friendly and cheering voice to breathe one word of consolation. There, alone among the dead and dying, they passed away, as Virginia's cooling breeze fanned their cheeks and tiie pine trees mourned the sad, sad requiem of their fate. Brave boys, while thinking thus consider well a 'father's bravery and a father's love, 'and if an engagement with tiie enemy be neecsasry, it is the wish of not only your friends, but of the state that you return. May every report of your gun be the death of a Spaniard and should you become a victim in the struggle for the rights ■and liberties of these United States, die brave for your father’s sake —and to your sweet memory will be given what ta hero deserves, remembrance. When you leave 'Griffin, (which will be in a few days) to attend to the many duties that 'beta’ll a soldier in army life far away, leaving parents, sisters, brothers and last but best of all, sweethearts, bear in mem ory’s 'casket the precious and sacred thought, that at your homes other brave boys, tried and true, will act as a shield of defense, and give the same protection that they would receive at your hands. Yes, we will do all this at the sacrifice of our own lives. Should the kind hand of Providence safely guide you through this light, we know victory will be painted upon your banners. Then return to your homes, ami we, as brave Southern boys, will receive you with open arms, admiring you more, loving you better, for bravery’s sake, for honor’s sake, and at last, but not least, for victory’s sake.

Kiser in Cleveland Leader. NOBODY CLAIM ED THE PAPER & Rebuke by General Washington That Evidently Frightened the Owner. Major William Pierce left behind him a partial record of the debates in Philadelphia which supplement those of Madison, Yates and King; also the following anecdote: When the convention first opened at Philadelphia, there were a number of propositions brought forward as great leading principles for tho new govern ment to be established for the United States. A copy of these propositions was given to each member, with an injunc tion to keep everything a profound se cret. One morning, Ijy accident, one of tho members dropped his copy of the propositions, which, being luckily pick ed up by General Mililin, was presented to General Washington, our president, who put it in his pocket. After the de bates of the day were over and the ques tion for adjournment was called for the geuer: 1 arose from his si-at and, pruvi ous to his putting the question, address ed the coiiveiiciun in the following man ner: “Gentlemen, I am sorry to find that »ome one member of this body has been eu neglectful of the secrets of the con vention as to drop in the statehouse a copy of their proceedings, which by ac cident was picked up and delivered to me this morning. 1 must entreat gen tlemen to Le more careful, lest our transactions get into th ? newspapers and disturb the public rubs by jirematuie speculations, i know not whose pa pel it is. but there it is (throwing it down on the table). Let him who owns it takt it.” At the same time he bowed, picker, up his hat and quitted the room with a dignity so severe that every person see med alarmed. For my part, I was extremely so, for, putting my band in my pocket, I missed my copy of the same paper, but, advancing up to the table, my fears soon dissipated. I found it to be the handwriting of another per son. When I went to my lodgings at the Indian Queen, I found my copy in a coat ptxiket which I had pulled off that morning. It is sometjiing remarkable that no person ever owned the puper.— American Historical Review. MACON NEWs WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY 18 1896. Tin* Literature of Japan.
